🔹 How It Works
Mycophenolate mofetil is converted into mycophenolic acid in the body. It inhibits an enzyme required for the production of substances needed for lymphocyte growth and multiplication. This reduces the activity of certain immune cells and helps prevent the immune system from attacking a transplanted organ.

🔹 Dosage and Administration

The dose and treatment duration depend on the type of transplant, other medicines being used, and individual response. Swallow the capsule whole with water and do not open or crush it unless specifically instructed. Do not change the dose or stop treatment without medical advice.

🔹 Possible Side Effects

🔹 Precautions and Warnings
Mycophenolate mofetil suppresses the immune system and can increase the risk of serious infections and certain cancers. Regular blood tests may be required to monitor blood cell counts and other health parameters. Mycophenolate can cause serious harm to an unborn baby and requires strict pregnancy precautions in patients who can become pregnant. Inform your doctor about infections, blood disorders, liver or kidney problems, pregnancy, or plans for pregnancy.
